Seems like a lot of states used to have a duty to retreat, even within one's own home.

Probably most of the Castle Doctrine and Stand your Ground laws have grown from laws which required the duty to retreat.

And before we sentence the "vigilante" to life and 50, let's see what the courts decide...unless you have more faith in the media getting their facts straight than I do.

After all, I wasn't there, were you?
